With the magic satchel in his possession, Mahmud has returned to plague Armstrong. Using the power of the "trinkets of the gods," Mahmud seeks to destroy his immortal adversary with his own magic.

Quotes[]

Above all-- do not panic!

-- Archer

With a companion such as he, Armstrong needs no enemies.

-- Mahmud

Silvio, bring me another Vodka Martini, I feel my humor's fading. -- And keep them coming.

-- Mahmud

You are a troublesome youth, Archer... Go away. Preferably someplace nasty.

-- Mahmud

Joke as you wish, Armstrong -- this is your final battle! I will have my revenge!

-- Mahmud

Sir, was that a flying pig? Or am I still under Mahmud's spell?

-- Archer

Mahmud's got his own spell to worry about now, kiddo! He'll stay like that forever unless he gets kissed on the ups by a Transylvanian fairy during a leap year.

-- Armstrong

A singularly unlikely antidote, Mister Armstrong.

-- Archer

Er...Doctor Solar is a comic-book character, Archer.

-- Solar

Yes, Doctor -- but my mother, may she choke, wouldn't allow me to read what she called ungodly garbage fit only for recalcitrant adolescents... -- But I always enjoyed your lovely painted covers, sir.

-- Archer

No, thanks... Us robot-fighters have to keep a clear head! So long, Strongarm.

-- Solar
